I recently switched to an extended monitor and only have one monitor. My screen went black and now I have no way to get back to my original screen display. I'm running Windows 8. Can anyone help?

Hi Butch,
Press Windows key + P on your keyboard and choose PC screen only to let Windows be showed on the main monitor. If you're still having issues, please do let us know in detail so we could have a better understanding of the current situation.
We'll be waiting for your updates.
